So we have the BEST Fishing Forum in the world, and our Cover Picture has a guy using a spinning rod, Upside Down.


I'm glad there are wine drinkers in this world ..... it saves more beer for the rest of us.

Well, I’m not sure about the reel, but the rod is certainly a spinning rod, wow

It looks like a Zebco type reel. Not a spinning reel. May be something he cobbled together.

I thought it might be a Johnson spincast reel.

Looks like he's having a good time. Doesn't get much better than fishing right as the sun sets. Stuff like that used to bother me, not so much anymore.

My 3-year-old grandson holds his fishing rod upside-down.

I am probably the odd one out on spinning reels. I don't use them upside down, but I do put the crank on the RH side of the reel. I got so used to baitcasters, it felt odd to crank a spinning reel with the left hand.
